    not a down grade as such chap, just very bumpy roads locally and want a bit of comfort from the 40 profile of the 17's

    Re: new wheel time!

    well my tyre i thought that just needed re-sealing was knackard along the inner wall below the rim. nothing that could be seen while the tyre was on the rim only when it was removed, so i had a new tyre fitted and now alls ok!
    still chuffed with them, and i also sorted another niggle that was bugging me (and causing an annoying rattle - the one we heard the other night andy l) and re-aligned the front bumper and fixed it on better. very happy with the astra now and glad i didnt sell for the bimmer!
